%X Santiague£¿o Quechua has a switch-reference system with suffixes that indicate different subject (DS), -pti, and same subject (SS) -s and -spa. The literature on the subject has indicated that the two SS suffixes were allomorphs, being -s the shorter form of -spa (Nardi 2002, Albarrac¨ªn de Alderetes 2016). However, the speakers do not select both SS suffixes interchangeably. The main hypothesis of this article is that these two suffixes establish different event relations: -spa, marks laxer relations, and -s, introduces Manner clauses, i.e. closer relations. In order to state the hypothesis, it is proposed here a distribution of the switch-reference suffixes in an inter-clausal semantic continuum (Van Valin 2005), where ¡®Manner¡¯ is located at the narrowest end. At the same time, this semantic relation between events has a syntactic correlate. Therefore, it is also established here a ¡°desententialization¡± continuum (Lehmann 1988) with ¡®sentential¡¯ and ¡®nominal¡¯ ends, where -s clauses are located at the ¡°desententialized¡± end. Thus, the clauses introducing Manner in Santiague£¿o Quechua constitute a complex state of affairs: syntactically, as compression (Lehmann 1988), and semantically, as a macroevent (Talmy 2000)
